Seeing the headache on Shen Jiao's face, Fu Youan smiled slightly, "Don't you think Jiao Jiao doesn't want to do this?"
Shen Jiao: "..."
That's right, she thought!
"I just helped Jiaojiao do what she wanted to do."
Fu Youan handed the tea cup to her hand, "Besides, it's much more convenient for me to do these things than for you. If you have time, I still suggest you go to the study for a walk."
"oh?"
"Most of the princes and princesses who go to the study are young, and they are easy to trick and coax. Besides, you brought Emperor Qingyuan to see them before, and you have already gained a lot of favor. Why not strike while the iron is hot?"
Shen Jiao stroked the teacup and took a sip of weak tea, "It's really time to get moving."
Those who are older, such as the third to sixth princes, have early thoughts of seizing the heir, and it is impossible to win them over.
But for children who are young and have not yet raised the idea of taking over the throne, they are very maneuverable.
"The prince has been deposed, and only the eldest prince is the most playful in the court. Now that the third, fourth, and fifth princes are about to finish their classes, the eldest prince, who is a living target, will become another prince sooner or later."
"Well said."
Thoughts went through Shen Jiao's mind one after another, and then she raised her eyebrows slightly and took a deep look at Fu You'an, "We haven't seen you for half a month. Brother You'an, do you just want to tell me this?"
Fu Youan was stunned for a while, then laughed, "Welcome back, Jiaojiao."
"Don't you want to hug me?"
hug?
Fu Youan's fingers paused slightly, and he was really ready to move, but this was a bit too intimate...
Seeing the change in his expression, Shen Jiao simply walked over and reached out to lift his chin, "Brother You'an, reach out."
Fu Youan subconsciously stretched out his hand and touched her soft waist, his cheeks turned red, "You, Jiaojiao~"
His tone was no longer as rational and calm as before.
"how?"
Shen Jiao gently scratched his chin with her fingertips, as if she wanted to tease a cat, her eyes full of teasing.
What can Fu Youan do to her?
In the end, I could only laugh it off helplessly and indulgently, "I'd better tell you about the affairs in the palace."
"But I don't want to hear it now."
Shen Jiao seemed to be having fun, and gently pulled his face, "It's just those few things, why don't you tell me what Brother Youan has done in the past half month?"
"As usual, nothing much to say."
Fu Youan responded somewhat vaguely, "Go to the study, come back and practice, and then...think about you."
He said the last few words very softly, so softly that if Shen Jiao hadn't been so close, she wouldn't have been able to hear them.
Shen Jiao poked him with a hint of laughter and annoyance, "If you miss me, just say so. Just like I miss you outside, it's human nature."
"Hmm~"
Fu Youan responded in a low voice, his expression probably unnatural due to shame.
When Shen Jiao saw this, she stopped teasing him and took out a box from her sleeve, "Hey, I brought you a gift when I left the palace."
The wooden box looks very ordinary. When you open it, you will find a clay figurine inside. The clay figurine looks very similar to Shen Jiao.
"Like it?"
"like."
The clay figures are small, with a face about the size of two fingers.
It only costs six cents with the box.
But it was like a rare treasure in Fu Youan's hand. He didn't dare to use force when touching it. The whole hand was so soft that it would make him feel distressed if it was damaged even a little bit.
"Thank you, I like it very much." Fu Youan said solemnly again.
Shen Jiao was not satisfied, "You didn't express anything?"
Fu Youan blinked slightly and took off the jade pendant he had been wearing since he came to Daliang, "This is the best thing on my body."
"I don't lack these things now..."
Shen Jiao gave him a meaningful look.
Under Fu Youan's confused gaze, she leaned over and gently licked his red lips, "I just wanted to taste it, it was really good."
Fu Youan was stunned for a moment, and his calm and strategizing look quickly turned into a ball of stupidity. He split his lips and smiled, while reaching out to touch his hot lips.
When Shen Jiao saw him like that, she dubbed him in her mind - don't kiss him, kissing him is stupid!
The more she thought about it, the bigger the smile grew on her lips.
"Next time, next time don't, don't do this."
Fu Youan said as he spoke, his eyes avoiding Shen Jiao's face, but he couldn't help but look at her lips.
"Does Brother Youan dislike me?"
"of course not."
"If brother Youan feels that I have taken advantage of him, you can kiss him back."
Kiss, kiss back?
Fu Youan was disturbed by Shen Jiao's words. After a while, he shook his head and quickly changed the subject, "Are you going to eat here?"
"OK."
Shen Jiao probably felt that she couldn't tease him too much, so she sat down slowly and started talking to him about the palace affairs again.
After dinner, Shen Jiao hurried to see Concubine Wan and then went to Qinzheng Hall again.
When she arrived, Emperor Qingyuan was sitting on a chair with a pale face, reading the book.
"Father!"
Shen Jiao looked at Emperor Qingyuan displeased, "Didn't the imperial doctor ask you to cultivate yourself well? Why are you looking at Zhezi again?"
When Emperor Qingyuan saw her, his gloomy face relaxed slightly and said, "I'm fine."
"Father."
Seeing Shen Jiao's disapproval, Emperor Qingyuan put aside the note and said, "Okay, okay, I won't read it, so you can read it to me."
When Shen Jiao heard this, she had no choice but to sit next to him and read the book in a steady tone.
After a while, several loyal officials from the court, led by the prime minister, came to the palace to see Emperor Qingyuan, probably to talk about the prince's dethronement.
Shen Jiao originally wanted to avoid it temporarily, but Emperor Qingyuan did not let her go. He did not even let the courtiers speak before he said, "If you are interceding for the prince, there is no need to say anything. I will depose the prince."
"Then does the emperor want to establish another prince?"
The prime minister dared to ask.
Emperor Qingyuan sneered, "No, I will not establish a prince in this life."
He wanted to see how much trouble his good sons could make in the matter of seizing the heir. Since neither of them had any affection between father and brother, let them fight.
Emperor Qingyuan, who woke up, obviously knew that something was wrong with Shen Tianyou.
If nothing else, the East Palace was guarded by his people. How did Shen Tianyou break out?
There must be someone plotting this behind the scenes.
He was full of a loving father's heart, and he died for this reason. He was especially disappointed with his several grown sons.
The important ministers looked at me and I looked at you. They gritted their teeth and retorted a few words under pressure. They felt that it was necessary to establish another prince.
As a result, Emperor Qingyuan drove him away with a few words, and he never dared to mention this matter again.
"Your Majesty, it has been raining continuously in the south recently, and there is a fear that the dam will collapse. We need to make preparations in advance."
"Your Majesty, someone has impeached the governor of Ningzhou for corruption, perverting the law, and colluding with pirates to massacre maritime merchants for profit and death. The people of Ningzhou are in dire straits."
Seeing that Emperor Qingyuan didn't want to talk about establishing a crown prince, they immediately changed the topic to more serious matters.
Emperor Qingyuan rubbed his forehead and listened to them. The more he listened, the angrier he became, and veins popped out on his forehead. "He ordered Zhang Dexiang to go to Ningzhou as an imperial envoy, and asked Huang Rui to go to the south to control the flood..."
Shen Jiao looked calm and said nothing, sitting on the left side of Emperor Qingyuan, folding the folds in her hands.
After everyone left, she looked directly at Emperor Qingyuan and said decisively: "My son, I am willing to share my father's worries!"
